Doc's Clock To Close Next Year

The dive-bar dominoes continue to fall, as we learn today that the much loved Doc's Clock is not long for this world. The watering hole, on Mission Street between 21st and 22nd, will close when its lease expires in the summer of 2017. It seems the building's new owner refuses to renew the lease.

Stuart says that Leticia's plans for Doc's are unconfirmed, but is does not require too much of a leap to assume Luna plans to open another Mexican spot. And, with the increasingly popular Alamo Drafthouse Cinema down the street, and the upscale Vida apartment complex across the street, we wouldn't be surprised if plans involved turning this once humble dive bar known for serving free peanut butter and jelly sandwiches into something a little more upscale.
